You can wire subs in series, since you don't care about high frequencies, and passive filters for subs are basically coils anyway. But you cannot do that for full range speakers. The reason is that the frequency response that you will be sending to each speaker will be proportional to the inverse of it's impedance graph (or conductance as you pointed out). Just google some speaker impedance curves and see if that's the response curve you want to be sending your full range speaker.
